Condition
The board is sound. There are some frame abrasions along the left side of the upper edge and a few minor frame abrasions along the lower edge. There appears to be a spot of paint loss to the tree trunk near the centre of upper edge. There are two areas of lifting paint to the shed upper right and there is a further minor area of lifting paint to the trough located to the right of the large tree trunk by the left edge. The surface is dirty and may benefit from a light clean.
Under UV light there appear to be no signs of retouching.
Inset within a gilt composite frame.
